BLADES OF STEEL

Game Summary

With stick in hand and confidence brimming, you are looking to bring home the cup, win the MVP award, get on the covers of major sports magazines and date a beautiful model (not necessarily in that order). But soon you will learn that, in this league, nothing is ever given to you, and before you can reach your goals, you'll have to put the puck in the net and score some. You'll need both the artful skills of a finesse player and the bone-crushing brutality of an enforcer. Defend your own goal against unrelenting power plays, or put the pressure on your opponent's goalie and try a slap shot of your own. Don't forget to defend yourself when anger flares because the gloves come off and fists start flying. So strap on blades of steel and prepare to either make a name for yourself or be put on ice.

Kotaku has reported that there is a company selling an unlicensed replica of the Energy Sword found in Halo 3. If the image at right is any indication, this looks about as realistic as it gets. Retailing at a mere $49.99, this bargain looks like a wet dream to any Master Chief fanatic.
The following is the sword's description as listed on the sales page:
"Inspired by the ultimate close quarters video game melee weapon!
The most noticeable feature are the two heat treated, Titanium color finish, 440 stainless steel blades. This special treatment, sometimes called "spectrum treatment", causes the colors to shift at different angles and lighting. This effect is similar to the blade effect seen in the video game series. The blades will appear to be different colors depending on the amount of light and reflected colors they are around.
The gray ABS material handle is produced with stunning attention to detail. Accurate in design and size, extremely unique, and well built. Easily one of the most unique and awesome swords in our collection." -- TrueSword.comI am honestly conflicted by this product. The gamer side of me thinks it is an amazing piece of work that should be sitting on my mantle. On the other hand, my semi-mature adult self thinks that this is a killing spree waiting to happen. I think it is just a matter of time before the headline reads Teenager Kills Friend Using Weapon From His Favorite Game. Boy, I hope I am wrong...
